Abstract
The present invention provides systems and methods that provide knowledge about a reaction (e.g. interest) of a group (normally of people) with respect to a set of elements, wherein each group member can react in a different manner. Assuming that the group is accessible by electronic means (e.g. Internet) this system may be based on a group response algorithm to estimate group reaction minimizing workload of group members and minimizing the time needed. To minimize or reduce group members' workload and time, the algorithm uses statistic tools. The group response system estimates group reaction with previously set statistic reliability. The present invention can use too in some cases, secondary algorithms for specific cases.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method utilizing a graphical user interface (GUI) to determine the reaction of an agent set comprising a plurality of agents to an option set comprising a plurality of options, said method comprising:
- (a) providing, on a GUI on an electronic display of or associated with an individual agent of an agent subset, one or more options, wherein said agent set has a plurality of agent subsets, and wherein the one or more options are part of an option subset, where an option set has a plurality of option subsets;
- and
- (b) receiving, with the aid of said GUI, a reaction of said individual agent in response to the one or more options presented to said individual agent in (a),
- wherein the ratio of the total number of options in the option set to the number of options in the option subset is greater than or equal to 2:1.
